Recensione di JSL26

I never thought I would be addicted to a 8PM Sunday Night drama, but American Dreams has it all. The cast is great (with the possible exceptions of the popular Brittany Snow--who I think is just OK, and her too-old boyfriends.) But everyone else is perfect--Gail O'Grady shines as the mom (and if you want to see her in her real glory, check out her photos on IMDB). The show does a nice job with race relations (the Walker family is great) and with Vietnam--the All-American Boy joins the Marines. Last but hardly least, the music is irresistable--with today's young stars playing all the Motown and British Invasion stars of the day, interspersed with archival footage. Even the theme song is infectious.

It's TV's rarest avis--a family show with a bite and memorable characters.
